Why is it that people with creative names for their characters aren't necessarily the best players in the MMO games they are used in?

You get people with very poetic names that you would expect to be used for fantasy novels...and then you get people able to level up to the cap in like two weeks tops, who have dumb names like islayu7468.

What is up with that I mean really.

Numbers should be banned from any username creation.

While you're sitting at the keyboard thinking of a name, Islayu7468 is out there performing a goblin genocide.

For all your lightgun shooting needs and some other insanity too.

The people who take the time to think of a good name, also take the time to play the game properly and explore/complete side quests/collect special items/etc.

The people who can't be bothered to think up a good name also can't be bothered to do anything but grind and 'complete' the game as quickly as possible. There may also be an element of 'they can't be bothered with going out and living life, so spend all their time sat at the computer playing the game' in there as well.

'Anymore' implies that I have done in the past. I think I've only been in there twice since I first joined the board, I'm not a fan of chat rooms tbh.
